Are you looking to get away for the weekend, but are short on cash? Check this out: Hampton Inn is hosting a sweepstakes where the grand-prize winner could win an entire hotel (100 rooms) for an entire weekend. How cool would that be?

While only one person will win the entire hotel, 100 people will win a weekend getaway. 

Every once in a while a new feature is added to Gmail. The features are usually announced on a Google blog post and quickly picked up by the blogosphere. That's exactly what happened with Gmail's new "Call Phone" feature. 

If you're a Gmail user, and you have the voice and video plugin installed, you'll see a "Call phone" option in the "chat" section of Gmail. To make a call, you just click the link and an overlay with a dial pad pops up. You can either search your contacts, or dial the number using the pad. 

I've had a couple problems making outbound calls, where it says that the user I was calling ended the conversation, but the call was never placed. When this happens, I hit the "redial" button and the call goes through. 

I'm the type of person who will likely forget about something unless I jot it down. Over the years I've used whiteboards, sticky notes (both real and computerized) and notebooks to keep track of my to-dos.
